They start you with free bacon grease popcorn, it was tasty, you can for sure taste the bacon! The staff were efficient, quick, nice. I got a German beer, and a soda water, my partner did as well. My kiddo got a lemonade. For appetizers we got the pretzel sticks, and the curds with marinara and ranch. So good! Both were well seasoned and delicious. For meals, I got the chicken Caesar salad wrap, with fries. It was good, creamy, and I had crispy chicken replace the grilled. The fries were good. My partner got the Cajun Mac and cheese with chicken and the waitress suggested a side of fries, he said it was very good. My child got the pepperoni pizza, they have a 12inch pizza and it was enjoyed! Definitely recommend for dinner when you're about to go to a show or if you're in the area!

I had heard about the Tin Widow's holiday pop up being one of the best area, the hype was not wrong. From the entrance to the ceiling and walks, this place is the definition of deck the halls. Unless you get here right when they open it early in the holiday season, I would expect a crowd. The drink menu is so fun with holiday themed drinks served in matching glassware. You can even purchase the glass/mug for an additional fee. A lot of the cocktails looked to be batched cocktails which help with the bartender's efficiency. Highly recommend making this place a holiday stop. I'm also curious to stop in after the holidays to experience it without all the holiday decor.

They had several seasonal cocktails in special festive cups, which you could also buy to take home. I got the Cheery Cherry Chocosaurus, which was good, but pricey for what it was. Almost all the seasonal drinks were $15 each and didn't seem too big. The venue itself is medium sized, but feels crammed quickly. There's more people let in at a time than there is seating, so you have to move fast to get a seat. I'll likely come back during the summer to try something else.

Cork Wine Bar is a hidden gem with a warm, welcoming atmosphere and something for everyone. The…read moreoutdoor patio is the perfect place to relax with friends, enjoy a date night, or simply unwind after a long day. While they offer a great selection of wines, they also serve delicious craft cocktails for those who aren't wine drinkers, making it a spot everyone can enjoy. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, creating a comfortable and inviting experience from the moment you walk in. I also love how involved they are in the community, hosting fun events like Pride Week celebrations and singles mixers that bring people together. The ambiance is always on point, and on select nights, a live DJ adds the perfect energy to an already great vibe. Whether you're looking for a casual evening out, a social event, or a place to enjoy drinks with friends, Cork Wine Bar delivers. Highly recommend!

Our party of 3 sat there for 7-10 minutes with no service. Fast forward, the bartender proceeded to give IMMENSE amounts of attitude. She gave multiple dirty looks, while treating us as we were not welcome(all while ignoring us). We collectively ordered a round of espresso martinis (which previously was ordered and received a month-ish ago) and apparently that day they "don't have it on the menu". HOG was one of my favorite bars, prior to this horrid experience, I would always recommend HOG to visitors. Its ambience, location, prices and welcoming atmosphere were unmatched. However, if I walked in and saw that bartender, I would immediately leave.

We recently moved to Germantown and wanted to try the Richfield location. We waited an hour to be seated, but it was fine as we sat at the bar that had over 400 whiskey's.

We split cauliflower for an app, I had the baked cod, my husband had the cod sandwich and all were good. We will be back as this was a fun place!

I got the Manhattan off their specialty menu and my husband got their autumn barrel Manhattan. After trying both--highly recommend the one off their specialty menu. It was definitely superior quality. It's served over a block of ice so if you want it up, you may want to mention that when ordering. It tasted more like a classic old fashioned than a Manhattan but I'm not complaining because I love classic bourbon old fashioned cocktails as well. For a starter we got their much raved about bang bang shrimp. It came on a bed of greens and was good! For my dinner I got their seasonal chicken and dumpling soup and a side salad. Both were solid. The salad was definitely more ample than I was expecting. My husband got some sort of salmon alfredo pasta dish that came with roasted asparagus mixed in. I had a bite and he ordered well--it was decadently buttery and delicious. The service was super kind throughout our stay. Our server checked in on us regularly without being overbearing. Get to it!
